    Im a med student, I read bullshit medical justifications for drugs and diseases all day, I’m not interested in doing it in my free time.

    I did it anyway because you postured as if the answer here was “yes” when, if you know what enough of those words mean, it’s actually “no and we really have no good theories as to why”. I mean really...the least they could have done was speculate on the effect of Vitamin D on bone health as it relates to the marrow...but it doesn’t sound like they have any clue at all.

      There are clearly problems with the article, and i didn't mean to imply it was more certain than the pieces I quoted. They had a total of 118 patients with 16 deaths. Clearly not a basis of any groundbreaking answers, an any conclusions should be taken with plenty of salt. But really I pushed back against your comment because it amounted to, someone should read it to see if they confused correlation and causation, and like come on...

        Lol I didn’t say anyone confused shit, I just wanted to know if it was meaningfully backed by science or just clickbait.
